My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This little pocket pup is Dante! He is a 6 year old, 7lb red Pomeranian that is the cutest thing ever! Dante needs a very specific home so please read his bio thoroughly before inquiring. We are looking for a home for him where he is the only dog or he can be in a home with another calm, sweet dog. He does not do well in chaos or a large pack. We are also looking for prior Pomeranian owners that know the breed well. Dante would do best in a home with owners that work from home or are not gone long hours during the day. Most importantly, people inquiring need to know that Dante is a dog that needs a home with a yard because he is a dog that cannot go on walks. He absolutely will not walk on leash and trust us when we say we worked with dog walkers and they all the same thing...he just needs to go into a home where the owners have a yard for him to go potty and do not care if they have a dog that can go on walks or not. He is also a little temperamental about his collar being adjusted/pulled etc so potential adopted need to be aware of that and know they will have to go really slow in that area. Dante is VERY loving once he feels safe and will want to be near you, so a home that allows pets on the furniture is a must and he will require a dog ramp/dog stairs to the furniture. Dante is a good eater and a good watch dog. He does bark when someone comes to/through the door, but quiets down quickly. An adult only home is a must for this petite little guy as he is very tiny and fragile. We love this little guy and you will too!

Dante is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and had a full dental done recently.

We only adopt in the Greater LA areas as an in person meet/greet, home check, and trial period are required.

More about this rescue

THE FORGOTTEN DOG FOUNDATION rescues, rehabilitates and re-homes shelter, stray, abused and abandoned dogs. Our goal is to place our rescues in foster homes rather than in boarding facilities. After temperament assessment, needed veterinary services, and lots of attention and socialization we carefully screen and place these dogs in loving forever homes.
